How to use Wine · #2 · create a 32 or 64-bit prefix and run/install a software (Steam)

Hi!

On this video I'm showing how to create a 32 or 64-bit WINEPREFIX to better manage the different software

·

- create a 32-bit WINEPREFIX:
WINEARCH=win32

- if not architecture is specified, WIne create a 64-bit WINEPREFIX

- create a specific WINEPREFIX:
WINEPREFIX=/path/to/your/desired/wineprefix

·

to summarize (let's install steam in a dedicated 32-bit prefix):
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-steam wine SteamSetup.exe

·

Always remember to select the right WINEPREFIX, if not the default ~/.wine is used

·

Thanks for watching! hope you enjoyed :)
